That doesn't work. I tried it with both the froyo keycombo (vol up + vol down + power) and the GB combo (vol down + power).

Neither my win 7 box nor my XP box (running in virtualbox) sees the device. It doesn't enter download mode. A quick peek at dmesg shows this phone isn't even trying to talk over USB.

EDIT: ME DUMB. CAN YOU SPOT THE DUMB?

Thanks guys, you've been a big help and tolerant of my newbish questions.

It's like having that new car smell! (Except swype. It will forever haunt my nightmares)...
[Vibrant Android Development] Stevethegreat:
Been a while since I've last used passion (and its kernel) to my phone but I remember clearly that I went away due to its lack of CIFS support (which is essential to my phone's usage)...

So may I ask whether it is supported in latest versions and/or if not whether it's planned for/to future releases?

Lastly (and I know it's a stretch to request those) if the smootha$$ governor (fastest governor I have encountered yet) and voodoo colour (by far the best colour I've encountered yet) were also (to) be implemented (it) would be splendid...

Thanks for this great rom but mostly for its continuous support!
[Vibrant Android Development] tiber:
No to CIFS

Yes to smartass

Yes to voodoo color and sound
[Vibrant Android Development] fernkomoyo:
Hi pipol!!.. this rom is conpletely awesome... all workign until now. But! How i can make my vibe to vibrate when receiving text messages??
[Vibrant Android Development] Stevethegreat:
Hmm then it means that I'd have to wait untill CIFS is implemented before trying it out it seems :(.

As for the governor I meant "smoothass" not "smartass", sorry if I was not clear enough....

Lastly about the colour, are you sure it's voodoo and not CM9 color? Because there is a difference between the two, voodoo has greater gamut and generally is quite brighter...
[Vibrant Android Development] papi5120:
its cm9 color...voodoo color was implemented before on Eugene's kernel but it had issues so they stuck with cm9 color
[Vibrant Android Development] RaymondPJR:
You need the Nexus S drivers. I would google 'Nexus S MTD driver, xda) or something like that.
[Vibrant Android Development] Stevethegreat:
Hmm... the rom -then- is as I last remember (it has the same features, it "lacks" the same features).

Anyhow I think I'll wait up until CIFS support would be implemented, I think it has to be comparably easy given that every other kernel has it (but lacks the excellent GPS that Nelson's kernel has)...

Again, thanks to the devs for all your great work, after all you were the first to make an ICS port specific for/to our little device...
[Vibrant Android Development] SAI Peregrinus:
The easiest way to get them is to install them via the Android SDK manager. If you already have the SDK installed just launch it and install the USB driver.
[Vibrant Android Development] scaldaferri:
You can try THIS ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] CravenSouls:
I can not get my GPS to find a single sat. I have done the Captivate GPS Fix and tried every gps app I come across. My GPS has always been spotty on 2.2 roms so I guess its just my phone and not the software? Any thoughts?
[Vibrant Android Development] jkang29:
I've been running V.13 with kissed 2.2 kernel for a few days now. Everything works beautifully even GPS (maybe not as quick as Froyo but certainly good enough for daily use). I use GPS status app to get a lock first (takes about 1 min) then go to either map or navigation.

One problem I see is that my battery is dying very quickly. I use 1800mAh battery which used to last all day with about 40% still left. With passion ICS, it's almost gone by the end of the way. I noticed that android OS is using up close to 50% of battery even more than the screen. Has anyone else seen a similar problem?

Sorry if this has been addressed before...
[Vibrant Android Development] SAI Peregrinus:
Do you have any satellites listed as "in view"? Are they actually in view (check at http://www.n2yo.com/whats-up/?c=20)?

If you have no satellites in view, the problem is in software.

If you have satellites in view that are really below the horizon, the problem is software.

If you have satellites in view but no signal from them, you may have a broken antenna connector and need to do the hardware GPS fix.

Ready to try

I think I'm ready to try this out. I have two questions:

1.I read through this thread some and I see there a different ways of flashing. I am coming from Fishman Mod... do I need to install bootloaders? Can someone point me the directions I would use to install this ROM?

2. Is it difficult to get back to Fishman Mod if I needed to?

Thanks in advance.

Speakerphone Issue

Is anyone else having audio issues while on speaker phone? Also is there a fix for it? It seems like the MIC is way to sensitive. I have adjusted all settings in voodoo and in the rom but still the speaker phone is unusable due to this issue.
[Vibrant Android Development] L1LK1LLERZ:
What version of Passion are you on? Try the kernel that is in my signature.

Because that problem is fixed.

---------- Post added at 07:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:25 PM ----------

1. Yes, you do need a GB Bootloader, and all the instructions are right on the OP. Just scroll down, and read.

2. No, it's not difficult! It is really easy. You just have to odin to stock, root, install CWM recovery, and flash the ROM.
[Vibrant Android Development] jamesyl:
Check the Battery stats graph in Settings to see if your phone is Awake most of the time. If it is, then check to see what process is giving Partial Wakelocks to prevent your phone from going into Deep Sleep.
[Vibrant Android Development] Woody:
See lilkillers responses.

See my signature for detailed instructions.

To go back to Fishman's you'll need to Odin back to stock, install CWR like lil said but you'll need to flash stock Fishman, let it boot up and then restore your nandroid.
[Vibrant Android Development] thepa:
I had the same problem I dl'd the faster fix app from the market. Set it to china reboot, open maps and gps fix. It found 12 birds used 9 of them. Pretty happy now :)

just a quick question, is it possible to make my edited MP3 a ringtone?

and how do i add it... i couldnt find the link from the "sound" settings
[Vibrant Android Development] jeffery fisherman:
Ok, this might seem silly, but the only way I have ever restored my apps is with titanium. Can I do that once I'm at ICS? or do I need to do something else?
[Vibrant Android Development] CravenSouls:
I can't capture video while in messaging. It fc's the camera app. I can attach a video after its already recorded.
[Vibrant Android Development] L1LK1LLERZ:
Just edit it, then push it in System>Media>Audio>Ringtones using Root Browser on your phone.

---------- Post added at 09:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:32 PM ----------

Nope, you can restore using Titanium Backup or Mybackup Root, but manually installing is recommended.

---------- Post added at 09:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:33 PM ----------

It's a known issue! Will notify Neo about it.
[Vibrant Android Development] jeffery fisherman:
Thanks for your replies. Can you explain manual restoring? one by one, or is there a way to batch restore that I'm unaware of?
[Vibrant Android Development] L1LK1LLERZ:
No problem, and manually installing meaning installing apps from the market. An easier way for that is.. Go to https://market.android.com/, sign in the gmail same as your phone, look up an app you want to install to your phone, click install, and that app will install automatically straight to your phone without you even touching it. This is what I do now, and it took me like 10 mins to install 50+ apps.

Im trying to download the kernel in your sig ladykillers but it won't download. It says "duplicate headers"? Is there somewhere else I can download from?

[Vibrant Android Development] shdw03:
Yep. Log onto Facebook and sync with contacts... if already logged in, check under settings

This Rom is awesome but I'm getting a market error (-101) I have been trying everything to fix this... does anyone have any Ideas.. the only thing I haven't done is look through every post to see if anyone else had problems.. I have flashed back to stock and all kinds of other Roms and cant seem to fix this problem... Can't download any apps from the market... I was on v11 and was dealing with that low storage issue... went to v13 and then got stuck with this problem
[Vibrant Android Development] a2296455:
CM is finally reaching out to developers –– is there any way we can get ICS to be officially supported by CM for the Vibrant?!!?

All we have to do is get in touch with this guy:

http://www.cyanogenmod.com/blog/developer-relations

I think it would be awesome to bring the standard CM name and quality release from CM to our phone officially!
[Vibrant Android Development] woofiegrrl:
Hey folks, any reason I wouldn't be able to add an APN? I'm overseas and trying to set up a local SIM, and I have zero APN's set (dunno where they went, maybe when I took out my US SIM card?). I type in all the stuff to add one and it just won't let me - I hit Save and nothing is saved. Any ideas?

Edit: I don't know what happened, but a reboot fixed it, the APN was there and everything. So, yay! Now I just hope it works.

Try this from this Galaxy Nexus

1. Settings

2. Personal: Accounts and Sync

3. Selected my Google account

4. Once within my Google account, clicking on the context menu/settings menu I selected "Remove Account"

5. Once the account was removed it prompted and asked for a new account, I entered the credentials for the same account and then rebooted

6. Once it rebooted I went to the Market, accepted the EULA and downloaded Google Gesture (I wanted to try a free app first) without any issues!

FYI - the account I deleted was fine, there were no issues in how it showed up but deleted it anyway.

*********************************************

I hope this helps people out! Good luck!

That is what I do too, but most media players have the option to set song as ringtone. Not sure about Google Music since I don't use it but usually if you long-press or hit settings it shoudl pop up as an option. Zedge also has some good ringtones, albeit they are not full songs. I was able to get "Let go to the mall" from it though.

Is it possible to fix "VIBER" on this ROM?
[Vibrant Android Development] Penvision66:
Simply the best rom I have ever downloaded... Since I have started this rom stuff, every rom lacked something... This one does it all and on top of it all its ICS! I don't have 1 complaint so far and thats shocking! Unreal job by team passion! For sure when I get extra cash you will get a donation! I had so many problems with usb issues and finally got lucky enough for it to work so I could try this gem. No usb issues at all with this rom now either... You made my phone 2012 lol. GREAT JOB! Never thought any custom rom could do it all beside 2.2 (and that still had issues). but this does it all. I easily recommend passion over any other :D!
[Vibrant Android Development] scaldaferri:
Viber is working "nice and easy"... :)
[Vibrant Android Development] geosa:
Are you on Version 13 OR Version 13.1?

Only the message(text) part works for me. The voice call is the problem. I can hear the incoming call but the person on the other end doesn't hear me.

gmail pictures

I doubt this issue is specific to this Rom, but since I found it here I thought I'd ask. In Gmail, in the general settings, all the way at the bottom there is the option "Ask to Show Pictures." When you hit it, it tells that pictures will not be shown automatically...and you can't choose anything else. I would love to have the pictures shown automatically. Ant ideas how to fix?

I have the exact same issue, everything in Viber works perfectly except that the other person can't hear me at all, I already tested Passion and Euphoria with same results (with Kiss Kernel 2.2).

If someone has a fully working Viber (other end can hear you), can you post which ROM/Kernel are you using and if you played with the Voodoo configuration?

[Vibrant Android Development] Woody:
No. Pretty sure that .qmgs won't work with these kernels. In fact, when I got my Vibrant it had these in there and I did some Googling and found that they are not very compatible across the board and most of our kernels support the .zip format. Before you ask, no you cannot zip up the qmgs and install it that way.

Before you flash this, see your thread in the QA section. I have a few questions for you in there.

Hi,

Sorry for the stupid question. I am wondering what difference it makes by moving apps to SD on this ROM?

Since external SD is actually in emmc folder, not in external_sd folder.

Is the only advantage for this is to have more space under data/data?

Thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] yw2012:
Just jumped over the fence from Bionix Fisherman to Passion ICS. I have to say I am very very impress with Passion! Great job!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] androidmonkey:
Can someone recommend a fix for the "low space" warnings because of /DATADATA ? This problem has been around since CM7, why hasnt more people complained about it? Its a PITA!

BTW, thanks for the great ROM, i love it.
[Vibrant Android Development] Woody:
Mr_psycho has a fix for the low memory issue. It is flashable. Think it might be in Br1ck'ds thread in the add-ons section. But is on this thread too for sure. Just search /datadata and it should pull up (hopefully).
[Vibrant Android Development] SAI Peregrinus:
The INTERNAL 16gb SD card is divided up into "Internal storage" (about 2GB), "USB Storage" (About 13 GB, this is /sdcard) and the system partition (/, about 1gb). Apps are stored on "internal storage" and can be moved to "/sdcard" to free up space.
[Vibrant Android Development] L1LK1LLERZ:
Jump to ICS Euphoria RC1, you will be amazed!
[Vibrant Android Development] ubcjack:
Hi SAI,

Thank you so much for the info...

So I guess the only advantage of "moving to SD" is to free up "internal storage"? Since the real "physical" location for USB storage is still on INTERNAL sd card so the speed should be the same even we move to SD?

I asked this because I noticed that even though physically they are still in internal 16g SD, I do see apps moved to SD showed slower in app drawer right after a reboot.
[Vibrant Android Development] SAI Peregrinus:
I believe the phone populates the "internal storage" apps in the list before it populates the "/sdcard" apps. Otherwise they will be the same speed. It's just a way to free up space for more apps.
[Vibrant Android Development] brwetz:
Is the clock not updating properly a known issue? Or is there a known fix? Everything else is working fine (except my Gmail just does not work at ALL, but that's livable). My clock will not update no matter what setting combo I have it set on. It will update when I turn the screen so it orients landscape, but will only do it at that point.

Just wondering if this is know? I can explain this more if needbe. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] L1LK1LLERZ:
Yeah, known issue. Don't know why it happens though!!
[Vibrant Android Development] 94SupraTT:
Has a fix been found for the speakerphone echo issue?
[Vibrant Android Development] L1LK1LLERZ:
This issue is already fixed. What version of Passion are you on?
[Vibrant Android Development] Janis:
Uh, yeah, I found out the hard way that "format SD" under Settings->Storage doesn't format the external SD. It formats what is called in Settings "USB Storage" which I'd call the internal SD (which isn't, really, but that's what Samsung wanted us to believe, and we went with it linguistically). I have a backup that's a couple of weeks old, which is fine, really, but, well, yeah. My recent NANDs are gone now.

It's not clear that it refers to the "sdcard" that's in /mnt, particularly because the format command is listed beneath the external sd, and the last time I did it in a non-CM GB, it formatted the external sd.

I'm blonde, but I'm not completely ignorant. Is there a way to make this clearer, or is this not supposed to be what happens when you click "format sd"?

(The boot time is fantastic!)
[Vibrant Android Development] ArcaneMethods:
Yes, I found the same problem. The controls work but it has no effect on the sound (sourced from Pandora.)

Has anyone found it to work?

That's the only flaw I've found in this incredible contribution.
[Vibrant Android Development] yw2012:
But Euphoria still has a known bug that it doesn't recognize external SD no?
[Vibrant Android Development] Woody:
Over the course of my android career, I have found it is always better to partition, format, erase,...anything with the SD cards both internal and external on my PC. Rom Mananger doesn't always work for partitioning sdcards (we don't need to do that btw) and formatting is better with something like MiniTool Partition Wizard or GParted or even linux.

No it has been solved quite awhile ago. See here for the flashable fix.
[Vibrant Android Development] geosa:

Also, yes Battery Calibration has been debunked and I have the thread in my guide, but I also know what I have seen and experienced and I take that debunking with a grain of salt.
[Vibrant Android Development] Decepticaons:
Agreed, calibrating itself has never gotten me better battery life, however, my phone only charged to about 92% for a long time. After wiping battery stats and 3 cycles I got 100% charge and a few extra hours. The battery only charges what it sees, wipe stats and stay fresh and see what happens. Also pay mind to what runs at boot, such as notifications and syncs, and check to make sure your not running performance or something similar on your kernel.
